“Anyone who inflicts a permanent injury on his or her neighbour shall receive the same in return: fracture for fracture, eye for eye, tooth for tooth” . Thus, this Old Testament development in moral law insisted that one could inflict punishment on a person who injured him, but only to the same degree that he was hurt, no worse.
Christian literature from the first three centuries consistently affirms that the earliest followers of Jesus Christ completely rejected all forms of violence and bloodshed – no abortion, no euthanasia, no war, no death penalty. This declaration by the Holy Father necessitated a change in the Catechism of the Catholic Church which now clearly teaches the Catholic Church’s total rejection of the death penalty.
“Consequently, the Church teaches, in light of the Gospel, that ‘the death penalty is inadmissible because it is an attack on the inviolability and dignity of the person, and she works with determination for its abolition worldwide” .
